EDIT : January 2018 - About 3 days after I uploaded this, someone was already selling it on eBay. Don't buy it lol, send me money instead. All the tapes on here I bought with my own money, but I will always share everything I have, no matter what.

Just before 20 minutes into Side A is definitely one of my favourite blends ever. I really like Dj SML (from the Bronx), and I wish I had more of his tapes. I asked him what was behind the name - SML represents the DJ through childhood to now - small, medium, large. So know you now... Download it

You asked... a long time, and I had to keep you waiting. You deserve it, you know. Not the tape, of course, but being made to wait like this. TOTAL AMOUNT OF DONATIONS RECEIVED TOTAL - $5.00 (Thanks Mikalup!)

When it comes to DJs who no-one talks about anymore, what about Dj Rampage from Queens, NYC? When I first came across his tapes, I never imagined I'd be able to get my hands on so many and share 'em... Anyone have any contact details for him?

Technician is another classic NYC mixtape DJ who is definitely worth checking out if you aren't familiar with him. No tracklist on this cover, someones cut it off :(. Thanks to everyone posting links in the chatbox. If you are viewing this site on mobile, try a desktop PC or laptop for a better experience.

When people talk about DJs from Florida, they usually just talk about Dj Khaled (zzz). Here's a good tape from a renowned Florida DJ... And let's not forget another DJ from Florida, Jesse Jazz.. I'll post one of his tapes soon

People still sell tapes taken from here on ebay. Don't support em! Tapes like Rell Love - Spring Stickup, which is currently being sold on ebay... they just copy the mp3s I rip back onto tape and photoshop off my GRIME AND LIME text from the cover. This is why I write all over the covers nowadays :(

PS - Big thank you to Mikalup for the recent donation towatds the website. Mixtapes aren't cheap to buy, sadly! Very much appreciated Mikalup - and make sure you check out the chatbox for all the tapes people are sharing...

Another tape I bought from Brett. I messed up the labeling of these tapes - I didn't realise I have shared 4 tapes already named "Marley marl & Clark kent - in control mix #" so this is called "Clark Kent - In control mix #2". Big thank you to Brett for recording these in the first place for us all to hear... I think this is from 1990.

Usually I'd leave a green lantern tape to be the last thing I post, as then I can lure people into checking out the website (via other pages linking to this one). But I can't be bothered, and if you don't visit this site regularly already, you are a bad person.
